Houlihan Pharmacy are excited to announce that our chosen local charity partner for this year is Glasgow Children's Hospital Charity.

As a company we wanted to choose a charity that reflects our values and gives us the opportunity to make a meaningful impact. This charity plays a vital role in providing life-saving medical equipment, family support services, play therapy and funding for vital research. Simply put, they help children and their families through some of the toughest times imaginable. By choosing this charity, we are directly helping to enhance the lives of thousands of seriously ill children and their families across the West of Scotland, right here in our local pharmacy communities.

Over the next 12 months, we’ll be taking part in several fundraising events and awareness activities to support the charity. Our aim is to get staff members from every branch, the hubs, private clinic and office to come together and raise as much money as possible for a wonderful cause.

We believe this partnership reflects who we are- caring, community-focussed, and committed to making a difference and giving back to the communities we live and work in.

In our first fundraising event we will be bringing together not only our colleagues but our extended family, friends and pets to walk either 5k or 10k in the Kami Bear's Trail in September.

For those wanting more of a challenge we will also be running either 10k or a half marathon in the Great Scottish Run in October.

Thank you all for any donations for such a great cause.
